JA Megafilter Spanish Support, Access levels and other queries

alyander

Does ja megafilter have a language option to display extension in Spanish? I have an English and Spanish Joomla site and need megafilter to display in the appropriate language based on what language site the user is on. Can ja megafilter display only the docman categories that a particular logged in user has access to see? ls there a front end admin interface to upload documents ja megafilter? Or would I need to use the front end doc man editor to manage documents?

Also can ja megafilter display categories in the filter area based on user access? Eg. If I have it on a public site will it display only public categories and if I have it on the secure side of site will it display only the categories the logged in user has access to?

Hi alyander

The content displays on frontend of JA Megafilter page depends on the content you set to show in backend settings of the selected filter. With English site, you can configure the filter (in JA Megafilter compoent) to show content from a category (in English) and the same with Spanish site.

For the frontend admin interface, this depends on Docman, the filter can help to filter docman only, when you click to open an item, it will show under menu component of Docman, not JA Megafilter.

Hi
Thanks for the response. I understand that part about megafilter displaying the categories that are already set in Docman be it spanish or english categories. what I wanted to know is if the actual megafilter controls and instruction text for example, the word ;'Sort By' or the word 'SELECTED FILTERS' or the word 'Download, or ' View Details' and even the navigation words 'FIRST and PREV' can those be changed to spanish?

Also Thanks for explaining the front-end admin interface. I understand that administration of documents such as upload edit or delete will be done using the usual docman front-end admin interface. My question now is if I have megafilter behind a community builder secure login, will it display only the docman categories and files that the logged in user has access to? Similarly like in docman you can make a document public or private or you can add various access levels, I want to know if megafilter integrates on that level and only allows user to search or browse docman categories they have access to?

Hi alyander

For the instruction text, you can translate via language file for each language.

About the access level of document in Docman, if you set a document which can be viewable by 'Registered' user group, then in the filter on frontend, public user / guest can't see that document in the filter.

Hi

Permit me to ask a little bit more about language file. What language file are you referring to?

Also regarding the permissions, I understand that megafilter won't filter a document that a user doesnt have access to, my question is about the categories that are listed in the left filter menu. Let's say I choose a filter in the admin back end to display all the categories does this mean that the left filter menu will display all categories even if a particular user does not have access to that category? I have many different access permissions set on docman categories so I want to know if I have one page where I include megafilter on that it will only feature in the left menu the categories that the user has been granted access to and it will auto hide categories that they have no access to.

You can check in forum of JA Megafilter, there are topics discussing about language file.

For the permission of category, if you set a special access level for a category, of course, that category will be hidden from public view.

Hi I checked the forum under JA Megafilter and i was able to search posts but i cant see replies as i get this message" You need a valid subscription to view replies." Is it possible you can locate the forum post you mentioned addresses the language file and send that to me?

Also regarding purchasing JA Megafilter, all I need is a JAEC plan at the cost of $55 correct?
